Ecotourism & Sustainable
Tourism Marketing Services
Web and internet marketing for ecotourism and
sustainable tourism operators can be a real challenge.
Ecotourism marketing and sustainable tourism marketing
are relatively new fields of endeavor and finding
internet savvy folks who also appreciate the challenges
of operating a tour service, outfitter service, guide
service or remote resort operation isn't always easy?
The key is to find affordable services that produce
results. Tight budgets, we know all about
that.
I have
been involved in ecotourism marketing and sustainable
tourism marketing for almost 30 years, starting out
right here at home with Tennessee's largest State
wilderness park, the South Cumberland State Recreation
area in Middle Tennessee between Nashville and
Chattanooga on the Cumberland Plateau mountain range.

State Park, visitation about 1.1 million annually, I
am the founding president and incorporator of
this group which has raised since 1993 years almost $4
million US dollars to support the Park, has added
over 2,000 hectares to the Park properties and is in
the process of adding about 3,000 more. We won the Civic Volunteer Award from the
Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation
in 2002, and I am an active participant in the support
of State Parks all across Tennessee. They are
our number one tourism draw with over 27 million
visitors annually, more collectively than the famous
Smoky Mountains National Park in east Tennessee.
We have 53 state parks in Tennessee!

The key to affordable services that work begins with a
workable web site that has been optimized for search
engines. This generates FREE traffic from search
engines.
The key to search engine optimization is to target your
web for what people are searching for. How do
we find this out? Search engine research.
Look at this example, which will pop up in a new
window.
If you did not look at the example, do it now
because I am changing subjects. Take a look at
this
ecotourist demographic profile courtesy of Tourism
New Zealand. In 2004, tourism in New Zealand
surpassed agriculture as the number on economic
enterprise. The folks identified in this profile
are the prime market for ecotourism marketing and
sustainable tourism marketing, doesn't make any
difference whether you are in New Zealand, Australia,
Papua New Guinea or Tennessee. These are the folks
whose expectations you need to meet if you want your
ecotourism or sustainable tourism marketing efforts to
succeed. We can help you do that.
What else can we do for you? Look around this
web, there are over 100 pages of helpful information
regarding web marketing in general and any of these
services can be tailored to suit your unique ecotourism
marketing or sustainable tourism marketing situation.
We are a small business, Mom, Pop and adult Son, understand small business and
plan to stay a small business, but a very busy one.
We offer highly personalized services to our clients.
They are all good friends. We take a
personal interest in the success of our clients.
Our motto: we are successful when you are successful.
The great thing about what I do is that I can do it from
anywhere, doesn't make any difference where you are.
We use Skype to communicate around the world. So, proximity is not an issue, to me
anyway. Expertise and relationship are the issues.

marketing and sustainable tourism business marketing.
